Paris Launches Clothing Line, Tries to Cure Cancer

Posted Aug 17th 2007 11:12AM by TMZ Staff

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Paris Hilton, who's boasted that she's a changed woman since leaving jail, is finally doing some charity work -- though it involves her own clothing line. Giving back is hot!


The heiress staged the launch of her new line at Kitson, of course. The mob at the store was given the option of buying a $100 voucher for Paris' clothing line which moved them to the front of the line. The event's ad trumpeted, "Paris will be on hand to help personally style each of her fans during her appearance." They make it sound like that's a good thing.

Kitson donated 20% of the entire day's profits to the Childrens Hospital Los Angeles.

4. Paris should donte her weave because alot of kids with cancer etc. lose their hair. Does anyone think she'd do it if not for the publicity?

6. She is so full of it! How long has she been out of jail and a "changed woman," and she is just now getting around to doing some sort of charity work? And 10%???? come one! Paris is worth millions--doesn't she stand to inherit $30 million? And 10% is all she can pony up? Even at my church--they encourage us to tithe 30%!

She makes me sick!

7. I totally agree w/YAWN #3 - Skanky Paris really doesn't care about anyone (expecially cancer patients) and "IF" and thats a BIG IF she does - she has a very selfish way expressing it! My daughter just joined the US NAVY in June & her hair was way past her butt. And when it came time to have it cut (4 feet of hair) she made sure the local reps of LOCKS OF LOVE were notified, now my girl is only 18 & SHE demonstrated compassion & love - way beyond her years. COME ON PARIS GROW UP!!!

8. No offense Jordon but 30%? Charity begins at home where I come from.

9. Hey, 10% is better than nothing. At least she though enough to give that much. That's 10.00 per pair of jeans and I'm sure she'll sell loads. I'm sure the Children's Hospital is NOT complaining.
Give her a break.

10. How incredibly nauseating. 10% of the proceeds (after markup, of course.) This is just another marketing ploy. This woman has to be one of the most shallow, obvious individuals on the planet.

11. I agree with most people that she could donate more, however as a parent whos child goes to CHLA for treatment for a severe heart condition, even the smallest donation can make a big difference! at least shes trying!

12. I hope her clothing line comes in normal size. We all don't fit in a size 0 tee. And most of us need bras.

ps - to Ace - don't diss Groening. He's a genius. Amy, on the other hand, eh not so much.

14. Campaign to Rescue Women of Youth” featuring “The Paris Hilton Autopsy” offers a cadaveric nude Paris Hilton, laid out with twisted body and opened abdominal cavity on a coroner’s table, while her cell phone remains in her grip. The ‘unglamorous’ display which includes support material from anti-drunk driving organizations counters“the disturbingly glamorized trend of Hollywood’s ‘girls gone wild’,” according to gallery director, David Kesting.
